When you think tobacco, you think cigarettes. But there are other forms of tobacco that are harmful, as well. We've put together a list, along with the hazardous effects. But first, take the Cig Quiz to see how much you really know about cigarettes and smoking.

Cigars Cigar smoking increases the risk of death from cancer of the larynx more than 39 times and cancer of the oral cavity/pharynx by seven times.1

Those who use mentholated cigarettes are relatively more likely to experience health consequences compared to other cigarette users due to a cooling effect that allows smokers to inhale more deeply and hold the smoke longer. They are also less likely to want to quit or to quit successfully.7

Menthol cigarettes are of special concern for African-American students, because 70% of African-American smokers smoke menthol cigarettes compared to a little over 20% of Caucasian American smokers.8

Clove Cigarettes or Kreteks Kreteks, the Indonesian name for clove cigarettes, are made from tobacco that has been sprayed in clove oil and contain large amounts of tobacco and unfiltered organic material.

Kreteks contain two to three times more nicotine and tar than American cigarette brands.6

Kretek smoking is associated with an increased risk for acute lung injury, especially among susceptible individuals with asthma or respiratory infections.5
